[QUOTE="Kanwaljit.Singh, post: 149065, member: 14616"] I think Gurbani says that Krishna, Raam, Shiva etc were nothing more than Avatari Purush! Their teachings would have been as relevant to Hindus as they are those of Ten Gurus to us, but most of Hindu deities teachings and life stories have been manipulated and modified by crooked pandits to make sure they rule the gullible people. At some places they have praised the qualities these 'deities' had but doesn't mean we have to worship them: ਦੇਵੀ ਦੇਵਾ ਪੂਜੀਐ ਭਾਈ ਕਿਆ ਮਾਗਉ ਕਿਆ ਦੇਹਿ ॥ ਪਾਹਣੁ ਨੀਰਿ ਪਖਾਲੀਐ ਭਾਈ ਜਲ ਮਹਿ ਬੂਡਹਿ ਤੇਹਿ ॥ O brother, you worship gods and goddesses. What can you ask of them and what can they give to you? O brother, the stones/idols you wash with water sink in water. People say there are thousands of times when Sri Ram Chandra has been referenced in Guru Granth Sahib. This way the number 1 or number 5 have also been referenced in Guru Granth Sahib many times. Do we start worshipping them? No. We have to take the wisdom present in Guru Granth Sahib, not the count of times a deity has been referrenced. Here is another excellent discussion debunking the idea that Gurbani 'supports' Hindu Mythology. [URL]http://www.sikhnet.com/discussion/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5151[/URL] I guess this talks about powers of Creation, Preservation and Destruction which occurs in every living being. Another thing that Gurbani tells us is that all legends and spiritual material is just trying to describe the beauty of God. Some personify a few qualities of God. Others point out to stuff as miracles. All these things are trying to connect us to God, but no one knows the mystery of God. Only few people on whom God has His Mercy, become living and walking saints of God. Very few are there who are approved in His Court. ਰਾਗੁ ਬੈਰਾੜੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੪ ਘਰੁ ੧ ਦੁਪਦੇ Raag Bairaaree, Fourth Mehl, First House, Du-Padas: ੴ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ॥ One Universal Creator God.
